Ingredients

    Directions

    1. In a saucepan stir to a boil sugar, corn syrup and water. Once boiling, wash away any sugar crystals that may stick to sides of pan with a brush dipped in clean water. Any additional water added to pan has no effect on final outcome.
    2. Let boil without any further stirring of sugar syrup.
    3. Meanwhile, using an electric mixer or a stand up mixer, whip egg whites on low speed.
    4. Once sugar syrup has reached 260°F, remove from heat. Engage mixer in high speed and pour syrup in a slow steady stream along inner wall of mixing bowl. Whip until mixture is very stiff. Keep beating until mixture starts to lose its gloss. Then add vanilla, nuts and fruit.
    5. Scoop divinity by spoonfuls on wax paper or a silicone baking mat.
    6. Let cool completely and store in an air-tight container.

    Ingredientes

    • 2 1/2 tazas de Dixie Crystals Azúcar Granulada Extra Fina
    • 1/2 taza de sirope de maíz claro
    • 2/3 taza de agua
    • 2 claras de huevos grandes
    • 1 cucharadita de vainilla
    • 1 taza de nuez de Castilla o pacanas
    • 1/3 taza de arándanos rojos secos o cualquier otra fruta seca

    Direcciones

     

    1. En una cacerola revuelva la azúcar, el sirope y el agua hasta que comiencen a hervir. Ya que hierva derrita cualquier cristal de azúcar que quede pegado a los lados de la cacerola con un pincel mojado en agua limpia. Cualquier agua añadida a la cacerola no afectara el resultado.
    2. Permita que hierva sin revolver el sirope.
    3. Mientras tanto, usando una batidora eléctrica bata las claras a velocidad baja.
    4. Cuando el sirope llegue a 260° F, quítelo del fuego. Ponga la batidora a velocidad rápida y vierta el sirope lentamente cerca de la orilla del tazón. Bata hasta que la mezcla quede a punto de nieve. Continúe batiendo la mezcla hasta que pierda el brillo. Añada la vainilla, las nueces y la fruta.
    5. Vierte el dulce por cucharadas en un papel de cera o una superficie de silicona.
